Nope, INCORRECT. Suitcase predated the Fonts folder. At the time all Apple had was the "Font/DA Mover."

Suitcase was a third party utility created by Steve Brecher. It was essentially a one-man operation for many years and eventually Steve sold it after it had grown. It's now developed and marketed by Extensis.

I was one of the earliest supporters of Suitcase, as I was a beta tester for Steve throughout several versions. It came with two other utilities, Font Valet and Font Harmony, which provided font compression and typeface family integration respectively.

I stopped using it when ATM Deluxe and ATR came out.

The Fonts Folder, though a vast improvement over the Font/DA Mover, was not a font management utility as such.
